Lions on the Plains

My precious little lover

lay your head on mine,

trace me with your paws,

retract our spiny claws,

wrap me with your tail

a furry loving while,

you can fall beside me

and we’ll roar into the wild,

_

My precious little lover

bask under the sun,

when we do get hungry

I’ll go with you to hunt

when you do get dirty

I’ll lend you my own tongue,

and when we fight and scratch

we’ll end up making love,

_

My precious little lover

who was buried in my heart,

like a seed was planted

that now can see the light,

I refuse to struggle

I give up on this fight,

come and curl beside me

I promise not to bite,

_

My precious little lover

lay your head on mine,

we’ll stay untamed

as lions on the plains

remain until they die.
